Maybe they fear
that they break their parents' hearts
before their parents fear that their child's heart is broken
now they won't fear it breaking
because of someone else (than before)

(l.p)
And what if the story about Romeo & Juliet
never really wanted to teach us about the romantic kind of love
What if the whole story only wanted to put into words
that love never waits for anyone..

(l.p)
It
And then it came rushing over her
The fascination and fear of the unknown; of it
when she thought about it

she wanted so much much to explore every inch of it, study its mind and get lost in the staggering thought of being with *it
Her head was swimming just by the thought of it. But the idea of something, anything, can be poisonous. Just like it.
When two people say goodbye
and let go of each other
it is so very cruel
you'll see because one day
one of them will see a shooting star
and realize who loved the most
and who stopped loving
a long time ago

(l.p)
Today was the day I saw a shooting star and it hurt alot watching it. But I guess that's the thing about letting go. It's harsh.
She was like every sunrise
I had ever seen
gathered in one
beautiful moment of
elevation
So there is this woman and every time I see her smile I just can't seem to think of anything else but that short moment of joy where  I get admire her loveliness. Just for a while. It's all I can ever can do. That's the thing about being strangers. But that's ok. It has to be.
And if love is that one thing
making life worth living
I now understand why Buddha said
that life is an affliction

because if everything must come to an end - love too, the pain would be endless. Because love has various endings, all painful in their own way.

(l.p)
Sometimes you feel stronger on your own
apart from being alone

but being alone can sometimes
give you time to think things through
and to gather the strength
to face your fears
on your own.
Sometimes you can't make it on your own. And sometimes you have to. But you mostly feel it when you need help or when you just want to go about things quietly. You can also do both things simultaneously; that's where I'm at and it feels great!
